Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Enterprise to undertake an archaeological watching brief to mitigate the potential loss of archaeological remains during a programme of improvements to water services at Brompton Hall, Chirbury, Shropshire (hereafter the 'Scheme'), NGR SO 249 933. The Scheme entailed works within and adjacent to the Scheduled areas of 'Three Roman camps north west of Brompton Mill including Tumulus and section of Offa's Dyke' and 'Motte and Bailey Castle and line of Offa's Dyke adjacent to Brompton Hall' (SAM No. 308 and 19210). The Scheme crossed the England/Wales border however Wessex Archaeology only monitored works on the English side, with Cadw being responsible for the project on the Welsh side. Scheduled Monument Consent (SMC) was granted in August 2011 by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) for excavations within the scheduled area. The watching brief was undertaken between the 7th and 23rd September 2011 and comprised monitoring the excavation of drive and reception pits and open trenching within open fields and within the verge and highway of the A489 and B4385. Despite the very high density of monumental archaeology close to the works, no definitive buried archaeological remains were encountered. A single feature identified in trench 14 is likely to have been modern. This lack of archaeological material is due in part to the siting of some parts of the Scheme in areas that have been disturbed by previous works.
